The Compassion Podcast

The Compassion Podcast

Join Compassion graduate Jane’alam Sheikh (Janay) to lift the lid on Compassion’s ministry. Through honest and engaging conversations with team members on the ground, go deeper into current international development issues. Go deeper into the difference you’re making through your sponsorship. Go deeper in learning how the global Church is impacting local communities.

Explore the complexities of poverty

“International development is messy and there’s sometimes no easy answers. Compassion child sponsorship can sound like a simple solution to a complicated problem. But the truth is more complex and more fascinating too.

“I invite you to join me and learn more about how Compassion’s church partners are adapting and responding to issues in their communities. I know first-hand that there’s so much depth in how Compassion’s model works.” —Jane’alam Sheikh, Compassion Graduate and Podcast Presenter
